The Forsaken Feast: A Banquet That Never Ends

 There are stories in Black Veil County that don’t just live in books or whispered legends—they linger. They wait in the fog, forgotten places, in the cracks of time where no one dares to look too closely.

One of the most chilling tales is that of The Forsaken Feast.

Nobody knows exactly where it is. Maybe it moves. Maybe it’s always been in the same place, waiting. But those who have seen it—really seen it—say the same thing:

🕯️ The table is always set.
🥂 The candles never burn out.
🕰️ And the guests? They never leave.

A Banquet Trapped in Time

The story goes that a noble family in Black Veil County hosted a grand banquet centuries ago. Some say it was meant to celebrate a wedding, a truce between warring bloodlines. Others claim it was a power play—a night of backroom deals, poison, and betrayal.

Whatever happened, one thing is certain: the feast never ended.

Those who have stumbled upon the banquet hall describe a haunting sight:

• A long wooden table, untouched by time but covered in dust, as if waiting for someone to finally clear it away.
• Plates piled high with food that never spoils, steaming as if freshly prepared.
• Glittering goblets, filled with dark red wine that never dries up.
• Figures seated at the table, frozen mid-toast, their hollow, unseeing eyes fixed on their plates.

What Really Happened That Night?

Everyone has their own theory about how the Forsaken Feast began. None of them make it any less terrifying.

🍷 The Poisoned Toast
One of the most well-known stories claims that the feast was meant to unite two rival families in marriage. But someone—maybe the groom, maybe the bride, maybe an unseen enemy—poisoned the wine. When the final toast was raised, nobody ever got up from their seats again.

🕰️ A Host Who Refused to Let Go
Some say the banquet’s host was so obsessed with keeping his power that he refused to let the night end. The clock struck midnight, but instead of the guests leaving, time simply... stopped. Now, the feast continues, trapped in a moment that never fades.

🔮 A Pact with Something Darker
Others believe the banquet was a deal gone wrong, that the host made a bargain for eternal life—but got something much worse. Instead of immortality, he and his guests became prisoners of the feast, forever frozen at the table, waiting for someone new to join them.

People Who’ve Seen the Feast (and Lived to Tell the Tale)

Of course, no legend is complete without the unlucky few who swear they’ve found the Forsaken Feast. And what’s worse? They say it’s still waiting.

1. The Empty Chair
   A traveler once sat at the table on a dare. He swears he only took a single sip of wine before running in terror. But when he got home, a new chair appeared at his dining table—an exact replica of the ones at the feast. He never sat in it. One morning, the chair was gone.

2. The Invitation That Shouldn’t Exist
   A group of explorers found an ornate invitation buried under the leaves near Hollowcreek. It was blank—except for their names. They burned it that night, but the ashes had reformed into a folded card by morning.

3. The Guest Who Moved
   A local hunter allegedly stumbled upon the feast while tracking a deer. The guests sat frozen, unmoving—until he turned to leave. Then, out of the corner of his eye, he swore he saw one of them turn their head toward him.

Would You Take a Seat at the Table?

The Forsaken Feast is more than just a story. Some believe it waits for new guests—luring in the lost, the curious, the ones who just can’t resist stepping closer. Others think that one day, the right person will break the curse… or become part of it.

🌫️ If you found the banquet hall, would you sit at the table? Or would you run before the doors locked behind you?
